Asheligh barty wins herfirst grand slam singles title after a dominant display at the french open hello and welcome to sportsday. Thanks forjoining us. England have bounced back from defeat to pakistan in the cricket world cup with a 106 run win over bangladesh in cardiff. Jason roys powerful 153 helped the tournament hosts post their highest ever world cup total of 386 6. Jorfra archer and ben stokes then got 3 wickets each as bangladesh were reduced to 280 all out. Our Sports Correspondent joe wilson was there. Cricket has generally considered bangladesh to be underdogs. They see themselves as a very different animal. Tiger they came to cardiff with optimism with good reason. Bangladesh beat england in the last world cup. And the one before that. But this is new england. Recovering from defeat in their last game, england needed their opening batsman to do exactly this. 100 partnership for roy and bairstow. Bangladesh chose to bowl first, it seemed a good idea at the time. Technique from jason roy here, perfect. After the ball cross the boundary for six, the technique declined. Fielding isnt easy for those paid to do it. A fumble came from bangladesh. Jason roy was watching them miss field and thinking of celebrating his century. He wasnt looking at the umpire. All smiles in the end, especially on the england balcony, and eventually from the umpire, that isjoel wilson. All of englands big shots came off, but bangladeshs captain was under this one. He needed every claw he had, and bangladesh needed 387 to win, the biggest stretch in their history. It is hard to bat against jofra archer. Hassan maintained the chase with 100, one of the best cricketers in the world, notjust bangladesh. 0thers fell, jonny ba i rstows catch bangladesh. 0thers fell, Jonny Bairstows catch as wicketkeeper, jos buttler injured. Bangladeshs hopes went when a shack hed fell. England have restored that winning feeling. Also in action are new zealand, who are taking on afghanistan at taunton. After afghanistan were put in to bat, Jimmy Neesham was in devastating form with the ball, taking five wickets as the afghans were bowled out for 172. The kiwis got off to the worst possible start in their reply as dangerman Martin Guptill went with the first ball of the innings. A short while ago, they were 96 for 2 after 20 overs. Australia batsman david warner, was said to have been shaken up after he hit a net bowler on the head, during practice today. Warner rushed to the aid of the bowler, who lay flat on the practice pitch as australia stopped their session. The team were practising ahead of sundays showdown with india. Captain aaron finch said it was unfortunate but the team tried to make sure everything was ok. The injured player was reportedly conscious and given medical attention. The young guy seems to be in good spirits at the moment, he has been taken off to hospital and will continue to be assessed, just to make sure that everything is ok. Dave was shaken up, no doubt, it was a decent hit to the head, so hopefully everything keeps going well for the youngster and he is back up and running shortly. It was tough to watch. Its been a busy day of international football. Well have all the latest from the womens world cup in a few moments but first three home nations are in qualifying action today for the 2020 european championship. In group e, ryan giggss wales side have suffered their first defeat of the campaign, losing 2 1 to croatia. Craig templeton reports. Wales may have won their opening qualifier against slovakia, but the visit to the World Cup Final in 30 degree heat was an altogether different position. Even should have served as an early warning. Long throws are not something gareth bale is usually associated with, but he supplied a great chance that harry wilson needed to take. Because when perisic broke free again, his cross found jamie lawrence, who found the back of his own net. Things got worse and the second half when wales were unable to clear, and the impressive perisic went from goal maker to goal scorer. But david brookss introduction breathes fire into wales, and his deflected shots gave them hope of a comeback. Something that he nearly completed, but to the dismay of the red wall, it wasnt to be. An exhausting effort in the sun, but it was ultimately a losing one. Craig templeton, bbc news. Northern ireland came from behind to beat estonia 2 1 in their euro 2020 qualifier in tallin. Northern ireland went behind to a first half free kick from konstantin vasseelev, but they had a better second half and with quarter of a hour to go, connor washington made it1 all. And a few minutes later Josh Magennis added another to make 2 1. Northern ireland stay top of group c on nine points. Scotland play cyprus at hampden park, that match kicks off in a few minutes. That game will be Steve Clarkes first as scotland manager. They have one win and one defeat so far in group i that underwhelming start ultimately costing alex mcleish his job. But clarke hopes that his appointment will have the desired impact. Just the determination to get three points, and to keep the positive feel that seems to be around the appointment of myself. The group seemed really positive, as well, and i want that to continue for as long as possible. At the womens world cup, six time world player of the year marta has been ruled out of brazils opening game on sunday againstjamaica in group c, reportedly with a thigh issue. Meanwhile, teenage midfielder yulia gwinn scored the second half winner as two time champions germany kicked off their campaign with a 1 0 win over china. Miriam walker khan was watching the action. The germans are strong starters at the world cup. Four years ago, they beat ivory coast 10 0 in their opening game. China are 1a places below them in the world rankings. To be expected, with one of the best players in the world, dzsenifer marozsan. The first half was full of german errors and chinese chances, which they failed to capitalise on. One of them was a sloppy pass, meaning gu yasha could run free. Yang li, who she passed to, took her time something you cant afford to do against the germans. Germany dominated the ball but did not much else with it, meaning somehow it was goalless at half time. But it all picked up in the second half the deadlock finally broken by dzsenifer marozsans corner turned into a sensational strike by teenager giulia gwinn. The first goal and the first competitive game by germanys new coach. Much to her relief, that one goal was all it took to secure those three crucial points. They survived an onslaught of chinese miss chances with a lifeline from a teenager. Spain came back from a goal down to beat tournament debutants south africa 3 1 in their opening game of group b. Thembi katlana had put south africa ahead on 25 minutes, but Atletico Madrid forward Jenni Hermoso twice scored from the spot as spain fought back. Then lucia garcia sealed the deal for spain, with an 89th minute goal. In less than 2a hours time, england and scotland get their campaigns under way, when they face each other in the opening game of group d in nice. 0ur reporterjane dougall is in the French Riviera and has had a close eye on both camps preparations. Jane, the talking is nearly over and the Serious Business is almost upon us . Yes, it will be one of the tastiest great matches of the world cup. England v scotland, all the build up and excitement and it will take place in this stadium tomorrow night. However, there has been some bad news coming out of the england camp, and that is that the barcelona forward , camp, and that is that the barcelona forward, tori duggan, came to training, but then she limped off and we are told she is suffering from a thigh injury and will be a doubt for tomorrows match. 0n the plus side, demi stokes, who had suffered from a knee injury, did train with the rest of the squad today and she didnt have any strapping on her knee, so that is on the plus side for england. Phil neville has confirmed that both stokes and duggan will undergo a fitness test tomorrow morning to see whether they will be eligible to play or not tomorrow night. We will hear from play or not tomorrow night. We will hearfrom phil neville in a moment, hearfrom phil neville in a moment, he also talks about the intensity of tomorrow nights match. Scotland also trained earlier today and Shirley Karen said her squad were 100 fit. That is a bonus for scotland, because in previous tournaments, they have suffered with key players being injured, leading to them losing quite dramatically to england 6 0 in the euros in 2017. The other news coming out of scotla nd the other news coming out of scotland is that shelley, the head coach, has been awarded an mbe for services to football. She said she was flabbergasted and flattered at the honour. She was also asked in the honour. She was also asked in the News Conference that she felt that scotland may be the underdogs for tomorrow nights match. It is our first world cup, first Scottish Team to play in a world cup for over two decades. 0urjourney so far has been fantastic, and we are playing against a formidable england tea m playing against a formidable england team who are ranked third in the world and already, phil neville, pa rt world and already, phil neville, part of hisjob world and already, phil neville, part of his job was to win the world cup. It will be a tough task for us, but we are looking forward to it. You can get caught up in the emotion, notjust you can get caught up in the emotion, not just the you can get caught up in the emotion, notjust the emotion of getting against your nearest rivals, but the first game of any major tournament is always the most difficult. There will be a lot of trepidation, nervousness, tension in this first game, there always is, every team. I want my players to enjoy themselves. We have worked really ha rd enjoy themselves. We have worked really hard for 16 months and everything i say to them, the last thing i say to them before they go on the pitch, it isjust a game of football. If they tense up, let the occasion get the better of them, start reading the newspapers and believing some of the hype that is around them, we will end up with a ba na na around them, we will end up with a banana on our face, we will, and we dont want that. We saw a great crowd for the first game of the tournament last night, but how is the atmosphere building for this one . There seems to have been an influx today of people, perhaps some flights arriving from the uk, so we have seen some people may be common for the weekend and who can blame them . We have seen some lioness kits and is also some helps as well, people coming to enjoy the beauty of the city, and also the temperature. 0ur 2a degrees, i can imagine it is better than back home, certainly in scotla nd than back home, certainly in scotland anyway. The nice thing about both sets of fans is that there seems to be some Mutual Respect and also, as you can imagine, some ribbing as well. Earlier today, we caught up with some fans who arrived for the match tomorrow and there was some banter between them. They will want to win their first match, make a great start, and scotland are perfect for taking. Unbelievable, the chance to come and see them in a world cup, i said that on the way here, my mum and dad came in 98 when scotland were here and i said that in the taxi, it is crazy to think that that was the last time my mum and dad came to something and 110w my mum and dad came to something and now we are here in france for the womens team. It is great to be able to experience it. I would love it to bea to experience it. I would love it to be a walkover. I think it should be, probably 3 0 to england. I would like to see some goals. It wasjust unbelievable watching it, so emotional, because it was a big thing for scotland to qualify. A big thing for scotland to qualify. A big thing for scotland to qualify. A big thing for womens football, it is just incredible, it will push it on even further. Someone mentioned the coverage there, but regardless of what happens on the pitch, this tournament is a watershed moment for the sport, isnt it . The difference between this world cup and previous ones is the visibility of the players. They seem to be everywhere, whether it be advertisements or sponsorships, they really are becoming more high profile. If you think aboutjust becoming more high profile. If you think about just this tournament alone, almost1 million tickets have been sold so far. Last night, the Opening Ceremony and frances 4 0 win over south korea was watched by over 8000 people, win over south korea was watched by over8000 people, 80,000 win over south korea was watched by over 8000 people, 80,000 people, it was a sell out crowd. Definitely, after this summers world cup, it seems to be a watershed moment that some of these names will be very well known. Even back in the uk, both the england and scotland squads have had murals which have been made of them being put up in their home cities around the uk. Again, it makes those players more visible. Which of those players become household names . That might depend on how well they play tomorrow night. For the coverage is live across the bbc. Scotland versus england. Thank you, jane. England manager Gareth Southgate wants his side to end the season on a high with victory over switzerland tomorrow and a third place finish in the uefa nations league. They lost their semifinal to the netherlands 3 1 on thursday a rare setback in a twelve month period that has seen england reach the semi finals of the world cup. 0ur Sports Correspondent Natalie Pirks reports from portugal. The team are training behind me, all of them are out, Bart Henderson and rashford, they are doubts for the game tomorrow. Gareth southgate says he doesnt want to make wholesale changes, because he doesnt want to destabilise the players coming in. England didnt lose the game from brilliance from the dutch, they lost because of mistakes. Some england fa ns because of mistakes. Some england fans have been picking onjohn stones. Gareth southgate was clear today that he still wants this team today that he still wants this team to play out from the back and doesnt want to return to the days of hoofing it into row z. We have moved past the days where the local parks you can hear parents shouting, get it out of there. We can do that, but we wont be in the semifinals but, because we wont have the ball enough. The other night was painful, but we didnt lose the game because we we re but we didnt lose the game because we were trying to play from the back, we lost because we made mistakes. At the thirdplace play off match that is not where england wanted or expected to be. At least Gareth Southgate still has a sense of humour. He was asked about england fans booing the player of the year, Virgil Van Dijk, and he says it is a marked improvement on fa ns says it is a marked improvement on fans booing their own team. Says it is a marked improvement on fans booing their own teamlj says it is a marked improvement on fans booing their own team. I am happy they are booing the opposition, rather than doing our players for when they started. We are making progress. I remember driving through the streets of malta and some of the songs that are being sung to us that night, so if Virgil Van Dijk has to take a bit, so be it. Southgate also said the importance of this much is clear, they want to win for the fans who came over here and give them the result but they came for. Currently around 11,000 fans have tickets for this match, uefa have been flogging them for around 10 euros. In fact, whether there 11,000 fans will make it to the game or not is another matter. Some sad news to bring you now. Leyton orient have announced that their managerJustin Edinburgh has died, at the age of 49. The club say he suffered a cardiac arrest last monday, and passed away earlier today. Under edinburgh, 0rient won promotion to the football leaguejust last month. During his playing career, he spent a decade at tottenham hotspur, winning both the fa cup, and the league cup. 0rient chairman nigel travis said we are completely heartbroken by this tragedy, and all our thoughts and love are with the edinburgh family. Ashleigh barty has won herfirst grand slam singles title after thrashing teenager Marketa Vondrusova in the french open final to complete a fairy tale return to the sport. The eighth seed, who quite tennis to play professional cricket in 2014, won 6 16 3. Austin halewood has more. A french open final few wouldve expected. The womens draw at its unpredictable best. Marketa vondrousova was the first teenager into a grand slam finals since 2009, but it was Ashleigh Barty that sends the opportunity and surged ahead. A commanding lead the next two games followed the same pattern. Vondrousova tried her hardest to go toe to toe with the australian, but barty was too controlled and clever, and just too good. The aussies power game firing with the first set hers injust 28 minutes. So a fresh start, a chance for the czech to regroup. But in the end, more of the same because by now, barty had found her touch. The australian found another quick break up in the second set. When her opportunity came, she took it as emphatically as she took the match. A final that never really got going, but for australia, a first champion in france since 1973. Austin halewood, bbc news. In the mens singles, Dominic Thiem produced a stunning upset over Novak Djokovic in the semi finals to end the world number ones hopes of holding all four grand slam titles at once. Djokovic was hoping to repeat the feat that he achieved in 2016 but he lost in five sets to the austrian fourth seed. It was a roller coaster of a fifth set but it will be thiem who will face rafa nadal in tomorrows final. Today and yesterday of course were tough. Its probably a bit more difficult to play these four hours with the interruption, than if you played in one time. But im still feeling fine, im full of adrenaline, of course, still from todays match, and also, i will have that tomorrow, so im not going to be tired, its all going to come after the tournament, so i am ready to leave everything i have out on the court tomorrow. Credit to him, he played the right shots and put me out of the comfortable position on the court and he could open up, as he did, in and he could open up, as he did, in a match point and finish off with a winner. I dont think i have done too much wrong, to be honest, in the entire tournament. This match was always going to be tough because dominic is a fantastic player on clay in a general, but especially on clay. It isjust unfortunate, these kinds of matches, one or two points decide the winner. Qualifying is under way at the formula one grand prix in canada. The ferraris of Charles Le Clerc and Sebastien Vettel were quickest in q1. But, in the last few moments, theres been some high drama after this crash involving kevin magnusson. Thats forced 02 to being stopped and as a result Max Verstappen wont make it to 03 after he couldnt finish his second lap. If there are to be any penalties, then he might still make it. Lets have a quick look now at some of the days other sports stories and britains Jamie Chadwick has won the all women w series race in italy to extend her lead at the top of the championship. Chadwick finished ahead of byche visser in second and fabienne vohlvend, who came third. The fourth of the six races takes place in germany next month.

This weekend, the Scottish Borders is hosting a Mountain Bike race with a difference. The competitors will all be on electric bikes to give them extra power, speed and distance. 0rganisers hope it will make the sport more accessible. We sent mike bushell to give it a try. In the hills of southern cotton, a Mountain Bike revolution. Tracy is back, but also competing on electric bikes. Southern scotland. Back, but also competing on electric bikes. Southern scotland. You can go further, faster, and access to rain that i wouldnt have gone on, andi rain that i wouldnt have gone on, and i can now do it with that assistance. It is also encouraging people who have never ridden a Mountain Bike to give it a go, that is the most amazing thing. This enables the race owes to go further, faster and be more competitive over more extreme courses, while the beginners, like myself, we are able to keep up and tackle courses that we never thought possible before, like these rock faces and these routes. A really steep bit here, tree stabs, rocks, but the power kicks in, you dont have to get off, run backwards or fall off your bike. Battery power cant move branches from your past, but going uphill, especially when you pedal and feel the electric assist, it means you can all get to the top of the mountain as a group. It is like being on a ski lift. It is called a pill flow and you really do feel like youre getting a pull up. Some try it enables me to go out and climb. I can climb with the athletes i go outwith, i can climb with them and do they descend, whereas, on a normal bike, i would have to stop and rest. I am type two diabetic, so it is helping me control my blood sugars. It enables me to explore more in a shorter space of time. You still have to pedal, youre putting in the same at work, but you can go three times further. It is a bit of a myth that you dont have to work for your downhills, you certainly do. Dont think this makes you lazy, these bikes area think this makes you lazy, these bikes are a little bit heavier. Rocks are still rocks, and any downhill power has to be controlled. It did give us all a taste of what the worlds best e bike racers will have to transcend this weekend. This is where you have to get through without putting a foot down. If you do, you will get a ten second penalty. We are all limited to 25 kilometres per hour, so that as a blanket limit, so it will still come down to the fittest person who can ride the best. This is really where its at, this is the premier series for the whole of europe, we are proud to have it here. Ive been blown away by how much fun it is. Generally, i like going downhill on a bike, but nowi generally, i like going downhill on a bike, but now i like going uphill. Electric Mountain Bike racing are still in its infancy in the uk, with many people only being able to rent a bike like this at the moment. If it gets us to the top of the mountain, the rewards can be breathtaking. Thats all from sportsday. Well have more throughout the evening. It has been quite a miserable start to the weekend in many respects, we have had some strong wind and heavy rain as well, the sky looking like this for many areas, looking quite familiar. That was the scene in West Yorkshire earlier today.

Over 99, the area of low pressure spins up toward scandinavia, the rain eases off, but there will be some further showers across the north west of scotland, otherwise, the skies will clear and they went will calm down overnight. Temperatures for many of us 8 10 to start off sunday morning. Apart from northern scotland where it is likely to bea northern scotland where it is likely to be a cloudy start to the day, for many areas, it should be a fine and sunny start to sunday morning, with cloud slowly developing from mid morning onwards. Into the afternoon, a different story, we will see some showers developing and these showers will run into convergence zones. That is where the wind will bash together and make these lines. 0ne line of heavy and thundery showers likely to extend and another one in wales, another one in Northern Ireland and in scotland. That is where you are likely to see downforce through the afternoon. There will be a few showers elsewhere, but between those showers, much more in the way of sunshine for many of us compare bit today. It will feel warmer, temperature 16 20. Into next week, this system could spell trouble. Warm air comes this system could spell trouble. Warm aircomes up this system could spell trouble. Warm air comes up from africa, colliding with cool air coming from polar regions. It is a clash of air masses that will bring a potent weather front. The met office have already issued a weather warning for this. Some areas in this warning zone could see about one months worth of rain, falling between monday and tuesday. It wont just worth of rain, falling between monday and tuesday. It wontjust be across the eastern areas who see the wet weather, it will be extensive across much of england and wales. Northern ireland and scotland drier with some sunshine on monday and tuesday, just a few passing showers. Temperatures nothing to write home about. We reverse the weather fortu nes about. We reverse the weather fortunes around later in the week as the weather becomes drier across england and wales, but scotland and Northern Ireland will see rain later in the week. An unsettled weather pattern as we head towards next weekend, the weather will become a little bit drier and a little bit more settled.
